There was an early sixties magazine, “Our Generation against Nuclear War” or something. I thought that was Dimitri’s entry into publishing. It was a more general left mag in the seventies, titled just “Our Generation”. But I thought it was attached to Black Rose then , running excerpts from the books.
In August 1977 they opened the bookstore on St Lawrence Blvd. Fifty years after the execution of Sacco & Vanzetti. They had a wine & cheese party, contrasting with the politics, but I was ten or more years younger.
